Phil welcomes you to his cavity wall home built in 1993.
Modifications:
Added solar, battery a heat pump and an EV charger.
Motivation to retrofit:
- Solar for the feed in tariff
- A battery for better electricity management
- Heat pump for cheaper long term heating
- EV charger because I have an EV
- A time of use tariff to take advantage of all these features
Approximate cost:
- Solar £16,000
- Battery £6,000
- Heatpump £13,000
- EV charger £1,200
Approximate savings:
My total energy costs including charging my EV are approximately £750 per year.
I get paid £2,400 per year for my solar feed in tariff and £300 per year from the RHI for the heat pump.
Benefits:
Largely financial benefits over the long term.
Who did the work:
Heat Pump installed by Forest ECO who i'd recommend.
Next steps and considerations:
> Possibly increase battery capacity at some point.
